Mike Tatu: March 2008
http://miketatu.blogspot.com/2008_03_01_archive.html
Wednesday, March 26, 2008. Out of Town Friends. How can this be? How is it possible that we feel like we are barely scratching the surface with some of our friends here in town, but are really developing a cool friendship with people that we might see twice a year? Not for an hour, but for days at a time. How could you not be changed by this? Of course you'd get to know someone and develop a significant friendship with a person that you've set aside a week of your time outside of work to hang out with.

http://miketatu.blogspot.com/2008/04/catherdals-and-microphones.html
Monday, April 7, 2008. I've heard in a couple of interviews from artists the likes of Sufjan. Stevens, that some people have preferred. To create and record music in inspiring locations as opposed to the traditional recording studio. I've personally been working on writing and recording my own stuff in the last few months and thought I would give this a try. I was really surprised with the impact it had on me. I would love to hear what you think! Ok mike, looks like i started blogging on your blog. The f...

First Christian Church Groups: I'm Dreaming!
http://fccgroups.blogspot.com/2011/12/im-dreaming.html
First Christian Church Groups. Thursday, December 15, 2011. I'm dreaming of a white Christmas. Isn't that how the song goes. Not much of a chance this year for a white Christmas around here. I saw on the news the other day that there is about a 5% chance on any given year that we would have a white Christmas. So, just another dream that gets dashed to pieces. Here are some numbers:. We had 796 adult individuals in groups this past season. Dreams are coming true! We also know that God is not done! Subscri...

Laquo; Good to GREAT small groups. 40 Days in the Word. Good to GREAT groups – Essential #1 Leadership. March 31, 2010. Who wants to be in an ‘ok’ small group. Not me……been in far too many of those already. I want to be in a group that nourishes and feeds my soul. The greatness of any organization is always dependent upon leadership. Same goes for small groups. Leadership sets the tone: leaders provide vision…an excitement for what is to come; a leader’s level of honesty, openness, and transp...If not, h...

Laquo; Being the BODY – Groups @ their best. Good to GREAT groups – Essential #1 Leadership. Good to GREAT small groups. February 10, 2010. After 6 years of trying to help develop a healthy small group ministry at our church, I think I have seen the good, the bad, and the ugly of what small groups can be. I have also been right in the center of. Small groups reflect this same mission: friends spurring one another on to become like Jesus so the world may come to know Him. Here are the 5:.

Mike Tatu: Goodnight 2011.
http://miketatu.blogspot.com/2011/12/goodnight-2011.html
Tuesday, December 20, 2011. Here we are again at the end of a year and at the doorway of another. As always, the questions that arise for me are, "What have I done this year? Did I accomplish anything that I set out to accomplish at the beginning of the year? Where did I drop the ball? How did I find myself pursued by Him? How did I love those around me this last year? What steps did I take to be more obedient to God this last year? What did I do to love my wife this year? As we say goodnight to 2011, le...
